Good advice from all above and I believe you have arrived at the correct conclusions. I'm also glad you had the foresight to buy the Vines oil pump adapter kit.

I will add one thing though: "classic vapor lock" is not just hard/no starting after turn off and sitting for a while. It also happens in hot weather during stop/go driving or on long uphill grades on hot days like I experience here in Southern Nevada High Desert. An electric helper fuel pump somewhere in the feed line is the ONLY solution. The one on my 55 Pat is located below the D-side front door on the frame and has never failed in its job
